Ok Ok Ok, I know, you have probably seen this location before. Yes, its a bit cliche, I know, but I had to do it. See, I am a landscape photographer, mostly. We just went on a vacation to NYC and Boston. Just not many landscape opportunities on a trip like that. So I had to get in some high quality night images where I could. When you are camped out in a City for a few weeks you can scout and get some real original compositions, but I did not have that much time there. So if you want to be sure you come back with some great images, you almost have to follow the footsteps of those before you. Thats where this came from. In doing research on Boston night images, this comes up over and over. So I throw my hat in the ring, this is my version of the classic location. I love the work of Bill McIntosh, his images are always so dark, so this follows that vain.

Thank you to Tom Wilson and Wilson (my Son, the tripod monkey) for joining me on the evening shoot. And to the other photographer who was there and kind enough to let us steal his tripod location (very cool of you dude).

Let me know what you think.

I am such a fan of hummingbirds :-). A female ruby throated hummingbird fans her tail while sitting on a branch right next to my porch. This branch has been a favorite spot for many hummingbirds who have visited my garden.

I am not really a fan of beaches of any kind (well, sometimes :-)) but this one is very special. I'd never seen a more beautiful beach before, really not! This is the so called Turtle Beach in the beautiful Sultanate of Oman. The beach is not easy to access, you have to drive a quite long distance and then walk, but it was worth it. We didn't see any turtles, though. They come in the night and you must book a special tour because this beach is then closed for the visitors

A wander through the Werribee River Park this morning yielded three confirmed lifers, and a possible fourth, along with some other fabulous shots. I have chosen to post the three lifers today.
